News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I just can’t wrap my mind around how quickly this has all gone down
No joking. What the heck went down during the past two months? This is nothing but an unworthy end of reddit.
They kind of brought this on themselves. Tens of thousands of users shouting at them to step back away from the ledge, you don't have to do this, back up and change course... And Reddit just looked at us blankly and jumped right off.
While following Twitter, which also jumped off first (the difference is, they had a parachute - as in they were public going private, while spez wanted to go the exact opposite direction), and now Stackoverflow is doing it too.
Hey, I got an idea: lets all follow them - surely this time it'll all work out and be different from all those other times when it did not, right!? :-P
Stackoverflow is in trouble anyway. With GPT-4 there's hardly a reason for users to visit it. At least not for problems that existed before Sep 2021.
